I would say this question pretty much answers itself.
To add to Diver’s post: you can add mission management & dynamic risk assesment to all of that. You are being hired to fly an extremely complex aircraft, owned by the taxpayers, in direct support of high level national security operations. I would say 1500 is low to even understand the weight placed on your shoulders.
